Basic Personality:
The Regent is actually a rather quiet individual, preferring to keep himself shrouded in mystery and intrigue. This better allows him to blind his enemies and keep his subjects confounded. He has proven himself in both the political arena and the arena of battle.
He can be jovial, reserved, and refined, but his flair for the dramatic can leave him open to ridicule to some of the nobility of Hell. While the restoration of Lucifer's line is Regent's driving force, he is also seeking to find his own identity within Hell.
Brief History:
Regent was created by Lucifer as something of a failsafe or back-up. Should Lucifer or his family fail in the attempt to take over Heaven, Regent was made to continue the legacy. He was created with the elements which make up Hell, as well as the blood from each of the races of Hell, for this exact purpose. He was left dormant by Lucifer until the day he would need to be awakened. With the disappearance of Ereshkigal, and the rest of the royal bloodline destroyed or denounced, Regent woke.
Instead of immediately setting forth to Heaven, Regent exhibited an uncommon amount of independence and free will, and set about to find Ereshkigal and put her back on her Throne.
Powers/Abilities:
Elemental Control - As a being made from the races of Hell and it elements, Regent has almost full control over the elements that make up Hell, including that of the Abyss. He is most proficient in Shadow elements, but shows mastery of others. His control is less on Earth, but still there.
Shapeshifting - As a being made of Shadow and other elements, Regent can shift his form to almost anything he can imagine - though it will always appear solid black. With some effort (and cosmetics) he can easily obtain the shape and form of other demons.
Weakness(es):
Made of Shadows - As a being of shadows, he must return to them to recover his powers. Rather than sleeping, he must recharge his abilities for at least six hours each 24 hour period, or chance becoming as corporeal and vulnerable to injury as any demon in Hell.
Light - As a precaution, Regent avoids all forms of bright light, though Holy Light is his undoing. Weapons and spells of light can also cause him great pain and damage, and force him back to the shadows. Anything that annihilates all shadow will certainly cause significant damage, if not mortal injury.
Vanity/Ego - Regent is, at his core, a vain creature, preferring to appear mysterious, beautiful, and powerful. He resents anything that makes him look less than that.
Youth - For all that he is an ancient being, wise in the political arts, Regent has only been awake for a short time, and can often have a shaky grasp on the motivations of others.
Magical Items:
Ribbon of Time - Regent can use this to speed up or reverse time up to one 24 hour period, for up to three people. The more that accompany him, the less time shifts. He can use the Ribbon to bind a person, holding them stopped in time until he choose to unbind them or they are unbound. If the binding is destroyed, the person trapped within is killed. If the Ribbon is damaged, Regent will be trapped within that moment until he can repair it within the Abyss. If it is destroyed, he will be killed.
Non-Magical Items:
Ancient Contract - Lucifer made this and signed it himself, granting Regent the right to rule in his family's stead. Regent keeps this on her person at all times.
Appearance:
His appearance is ever-changing, as he is a being made from element and shadow. Most often, however, he chooses a male humanoid form that is beautiful and youthful, often with elemental "flavoring" to produce a desired effect. His clothing is likewise of his own making, much like the Queen's gown. No matter what, however, he always appears solid black, save the the elemental "flavoring." What could be called his "natural" form, however, is that of an enormous beast with a wyvern's body, huge, leathery wings, and a head for each of the race's of Hell from which he was made. He despises this form, though it is far more powerful than any other he can assume, as he finds it an ugly abomination.
